| Summary: | Mondulkiri is surrounded by jungle forest bordering Vietnam. In the past, colonialism and civil wars devastated the area. And now, invisible capitalism is turning the lives of the Bunong indigenous people in Mondulkiri upside down. Threi and his wife live with his parents and five children. The entire family depends on subsistence rice farming for a living. But the crop yields drop every year. Hoping to afford to buy rice, they plant Dum Long (cassava). Due to unusually hot weather, however, it rots rapidly and the prices go down. Hard work no longer leads to self sustainability. Outsiders keep hijacking the Bunong land and the indigenous people are losing their homes. Nevertheless, they don't give up. |
